(4) 1-3 Calico Kid: Carlos & Carmen series. Illustrated by Erika Meza. These purposeful but cheery transitional readers chart the adventures of Carlos and Carmen Garcia as they move to a new house, trace a scary noise to a kitten, get a surprise from their favorite uncle, and enjoy their flooded backyard after a heavy rain. The texts include a smattering of Spanish words (glossary appended). Slick color illustrations capture the twins' shared joy. Review covers the following Calico Kid: Carlos & Carmen titles: The Big Rain, The Green Surprise, The Nighttime Noise, and The One-Tire House.
